Best 3 Caramelized Brussels Sprouts With Pecans Recipes

CARAMELIZED ONION-PECAN BRUSSELS SPROUTS

Steps:

• Cut Brussels sprouts in half; cut each half crosswise into thin slices. Place sprouts and onion in separate resealable food-storage plastic bags; seal bags. Refrigerate 8 hours.
• In large heavy skillet, melt butter over medium-high heat. Cook pecans in butter 5 minutes, stirring frequently, until toasted. Remove from skillet.
• Add onion to skillet. Cook 15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until caramel colored. Add Brussels sprouts and toasted pecans. Cook about 3 minutes, stirring frequently, until sprouts are tender. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.

PANCETTA BRUSSELS SPROUTS WITH CARAMELIZED PECANS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Toss the Brussels sprouts with pancetta, olive oil, 1 teaspoon salt and 1 tablespoon of the brown sugar. Place in a casserole pan and cover the pan with a sheet of Reynolds Wrap® Aluminum Foil.
• Roast for 30 minutes, then remove the foil and continue roasting until the Brussels sprouts are lightly browned around the edges, about 10 to 15 minutes more. Remove from oven and set aside.
• Melt the butter and remaining tablespoon brown sugar in a medium-sized frying pan over medium heat, stirring every few minutes. Once the sugar has melted, add the pecans and stir to coat. Let them sit for a few minutes until they smell toasty, then stir. Continue to stir every few minutes until most of the pecans are lightly browned and very aromatic.
• Remove the pan from the heat and empty the mixture onto a large baking sheet lined with Reynolds® Parchment Paper. Smooth the pecans so they are in one layer, then sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon salt. Place the pan in the freezer for 10 minutes to allow the nuts to harden, then remove the pan and separate the pecans by hand.
• Toss the roasted Brussels sprouts with caramelized pecans before serving.
